Aim: Through laboratory exercises the student obtains practical experience with the use of both basic and advanced experimental methods for characterizing mechanical vibrations, deformation, strain and stress.
Contents: Measuring of deformations by the use of holographic interferometry. Measuring of strain with uniaxial and triaxial strain gauges. Determination of stresses with the use of two- and three-dimensional photoelasticity. Measuring of material properties by the use of computerized tensile testing machine. Determination of mechanical vibration characteristics by the use of strain gauges, holographic interferometry and Fourier based modal analysis. During the exercises, computerized data acquisition and digital signal analysis and image processing are applied.
